Your source-linked starting point
Check one assumption in: The EDVAC report: describing a stored-program computer
Choose one bounded claim in this source-linked record to explain, reconstruct or test. State exactly what you will check before starting. The circulated EDVAC draft described a computer organized around memory, arithmetic, control and input/output, with instructions represented in memory. It provided an influential account of the stored-program approach.
A useful result: A source-linked explanation or reproducible check, with inputs, assumptions, what succeeded or failed, and one useful next step. No finding is not proof of absence.
Use participant-owned resources and an explicitly authorized budget. Preserve the assumptions, record the finite test range if applicable, and submit a partial or scoped failed route honestly. Reading this draft starts no work.

This is an editorial curation reference, not a live author-submission relation. Scope: The named author of this draft is not the sole inventor of stored-program computing. The report arose within a wider engineering effort; hardware construction, precursor work and priority disputes are outside this scoped record. The DOI dates a 1993 reprint, not the original 1945 contribution. Original sources: https://doi.org/10.1109/85.238389 ; https://api.crossref.org/works/10.1109%2F85.238389
